1 Summary

Beds24 integrates with several payment providers through which you can

  • collect payments for direct bookings
  • send payment requests which works for all bookings including bookings made on OTAs

Beds24's partner Stripe is a reliable payment processor that offers the best and widest range of functionalities. With Stripe you can also auto charge guest credit cards and virtual cards from OTAs when the payments are due.

Beds24 and Stripe together help to automate all your payment processing needs.

2 Setup

To use this payment option you will need an account with Stripe.

To connect your Stripe Account click on the "Connect to Stripe" button, you will be prompted to log into Stripe and accept the connection for Stripe Payment Processing.

Stripe supports strong customer authentication and complies with the PSD2 regulations. You have security settings in your Stripe account. Please refer there for further information on 3D secure, PSD2 and other security matters.

To use Stripe to collect Channel payments ONLY and not show on your Beds24 Booking page, then use Enable = 'Internal Only'

Stripe2.png view large

The card will be saved as a new customer in Stripe with the booking number as a reference. Once the new customer is created in Stripe the card can be charged.

Multiple cards can be sent for each Stripe customer and a specific one selected when charging.

Stripe will only accept valid cards. If Stripe reject the card, it's details will still be visible at Beds24.

Info Codes in the "Info" tab of the booking show you which action was performed.

CARDEXPIRES added when the card expires before check-in
STRIPEAUTHORIZE payment has been authorised by Stripe
STRIPEREFUND refund has been processed at Stripe
CARDFAILSTRIPE card has failed at Stripe, see the note for reason

You can use an Auto Action to mark bookings where the charging failed. A template is available which you can further customize. Use the context help (?Icons) in the Auto Action and on the help page (click on HELP in the top right menu) for further instructions.

2.1.2 Collect deposit for direct bookings at time of the booking

Use this instruction to set up deposit collection from your booking page.

Payments for bookings with deposit collection on the Beds24 booking page will be automatically collected and/or captured.

The card is stored at Stripe and can be charged manually or automatically again at a later date.

2.1.3 Send payment request

Use this instruction to create payment requests.

Payments for bookings with payment request will be automatically collected and/or captured.

The card is stored at Stripe and can be charged manually or automatically again at a later date.

2.1.4 Collect authorization manually

To authorize the card for later capture set "Capture" = No

The maximum holding period depends on the the card type and the country the card is from:

  • Visa 31 days (Japan 7 days)
  • Mastercard 30 days
  • Discover 30 days
  • American Express 7 days

The template variable [AUTHORIZEUNTIL] returns the date until which a card is authorized.


The extended authorization period beyond 7 days may only be available if your Stripe account business type is for a "hotel" or "lodging", other business types may be limited to 7 days.

For more information please contact Stripe support.

Stripe1.png view large

You can choose if the card is

  • immediately charged and funds transferred to your Stripe account (Capture=Yes)
  • no funds transferred now but the amount is available for later capture up to an expiry date (Capture=No) .

If the customer has multiple cards stored at Stripe you will be able to select the card you want to charge.

2.1.7 Collect payment automatically

Setting up pending payments to auto charge a card at a specific date is explained here.

2.1.8 Auto Charge Virtual Cards from OTAs

Some channels send virtual cards which are often only valid for a certain period. Virtual cards can be charged automatically when they become valid. This is how you activate this option:

  • Go to (SETTINGS)->CHANNEL MANAGER and set "Channel Collect Invoice" = Charges and Pending Payments
  • Go to the channel settings (for example (SETTINGS)->CHANNEL MANAGER->BOOKING.COM) and set "Virtual Cards" = Yes

2.1.8.1 Error when charging Booking.com and Expedia Virtual Cards

When charging Booking.com and Expedia Virtual Cards with Stripe you may receive this this error: An error occurred while processing this card

Possible reasons:

  • Merchant Code: The merchant code reflects your type of business (hotel, restaurant, grocery shop etc.). You can only charge a virtual card for a booking if your merchant code category (MCC) is relating to accommodation – 7011. Contact Stripe support and ask them to set your MCC code to 7011.
  • Missing CVC: Booking.com and Expedia do not always send a CVC for virtual cards. Ask the channel to provide a CVC for the virtual card and manually reenter it. For Expedia virtual cards you can try to add the generic CVC codes:
    • Visa/Mastercard: 469
    • American Express: 2469
  • Incorrect amount: Double-check you charge the exact amount sent by the channel from the booking.

2.2 Local Payment Methods

Stripe allows payment via many local payment methods based on the payers location.

Step 1: In Stripe

Local payment options can be enabled when available at the following Stripe menu:

https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/payment_methods

Select the platform called "Payment Gateway" and you will see the payment methods available to you, these can be shown on your booking page and payment request page.

You can enable and disable each method as you wish. Note each payment method can have different fees and conditions and not all methods are instantly confirmed meaning the payment is not completed until some time after the booking is made.

Step 2: In Beds24

Set "Stripe Checkout Version" = Hosted

The guest will be redirected from the check-out page to a Stripe payment page where they can select with payment method they want to use.

If a payment method is selected where you do not receive payment immediately, the info code STRIPEPENDING is added to the booking. When the payment is made, this is deleted and replaced by STRIPEPAYMENT.


Google wallet will not work in an iFrame, if activating Google wallet please make sure your payment page is not within an iFrame.

Apple pay is whitelisted for the beds24.com domain, it will not work on other domains so please do not use it if you have your booking page on a white label domain.

Bancontact, if you activate this, there can be delays and it can take a few weeks before it is made available in your Stripe account.

2.3 Refund of Payments in Stripe

Payments can be fully or partially refunded from within the booking which will also update the invoice. If you refund from within the Stripe account you will also need to enter them manually into the booking if you wish to keep the booking invoice updated.

2.4 Stripe Test Mode

The easiest way to test is in live mode and either do not capture the charges or make small test payments and refund them from within Stripe when finished testing.

Stripe also has a test mode but not all functionality is enabled in this mode.

To connect to Stripe in testing mode, you can use your Stripe test publishable key and test secret key.

Pending payments will not work with the Stripe ApiKey connection method (i.e. test mode).

You must be disconnected from Stripe to begin.

Open the Stripe menu at (SETTINGS) PAYMENTS > PAYMENT GATEWAYS > STRIPE

Add the following to the end of the URL &showkeys

So the URL in the browser looks something like this:

https://beds24.com/control2.php?pagetype=propertydepositstripe&showkeys

Press the Enter key.

You will now have access to two additional settings where your Test Keys can be saved.

When you are finished testing, delete the two test keys and connect in live mode with the "Connect to Stripe" button.

Do not use API keys to connect in live mode, Stripe considers this insecure and will limit functionality.

2.5 Change of Stripe Account

If you have had to change your Stripe account and have Bookings with Credit Cards already stored/authorised, you will need to clear the initial authorisation so you can send a new card to Stripe.

ONLY USE THIS IF YOU HAVE CHANGED YOUR STRIPE ACCOUNT

In Beds24 -

  • Go to ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT > MANAGE ACCOUNT > MANAGE PROPERTY > MANAGE ROOM > BOOKINGS.
  • Tick the appropriate bookings,
  • Select from the drop down box - 'Modify All Selected Bookings'
    • Select 'Remove Payment Auth'

this will remove the authorisation from the initial account and allow new cards to be sent to the new Stripe Account.

Please ensure you select only the bookings you need to have the credit card details cleared, it is NOT possible to restore if you erase by mistake.
